This is another quick update regarding our near match report in XLS format. First, a little refresher about how it looks in HTM format currently: 1. a9704426 100 1 $a Bernhardt, Rolf. 99.5% n 81070694 100 10 $a Bernhardt, Rolf, $d 1934- 93.8% n 00114719 100 1 $a Bernhardt, Rudolf, $d b. 1867? 2. a9733670 100 1 $a Carroll, Stephen J. 99.5% n 79041728 100 1 $a Carroll, Stephen J., $d 1930- 99.5% n 79041110 100 1 $a Carroll, Stephen J., $d 1940- And this is how it looks in XLS format: No Bib ID UNM Unmatched Heading %-1 Tag-1 Near Match-1 Authority-1 1 a9704426 100 $a Bernhardt, Rolf. 84.8% 100 $a Bernhardt, Rolf, $d 1934- n81070694 <http://lccn.loc.gov/n81070694> 2 a9733670 100 $a Carroll, Stephen J. 87.2% 100 $a Carroll, Stephen J., $d 1930- n79041728 <http://lccn.loc.gov/n79041728> The quick update we just added to the XLS version is that whenever you click on the authority LCCN (for either the first or second near match), it will bring up the online Library of Congress authority record. From there, it also gives you options to view in MARCXML, MADS, URI on id.loc.gov, or VIAF. We're hoping this makes it easier on your side to bring up these authorities for a closer look while reviewing the near match report.
